We are retired seniors and would like to purchase a tv/video card to go in our HP Pavilion computer running Vista now. Nothing fancy or high priced just something to watch tv on computer and none of all the frills . Any and all suggestions appreciated . JAK

I recommend Hauppauge WinTV-PVR150 Cheap and simple. I have four in one machine and use Beyond TV as my PVR software.

You should let these folks know, this card will not work with the Media Center. It works get with the WinTV and others but not Media Center.

Just tried the USB-2 from Hauppauge worked great if you have USB-2 on your computer. Installed easy and I got it for about 135 on sale at Circuit City.
